Weekly Weigh In 6/7/11

Weight = 190.0Loss = –1.6

Finally the right direction. Next week, back in the 180’s, never ever to return to the 190’s again.

Body and mind have been adjusting to the new workout schedule. The timing is different and the intensity is higher. I was plum tired last week. Hubby even commented he “hates” when I am tired, I guess I get a bit snappy or let’s just be honest BITCHY. Last night I did double kettlebell swings and squats. That would be squatting, all the way down, with 52 pounds in my arms. OUCH !!!!!!!!

I’ve fully tracked my food for the last 4 days and surprise surprise, I am eating more than I thought. Yesterday was the lowest at 1450 calories and 158g of carbs. Been having a hard time controlling the chocolate covered almonds in the house. YUMMY.

I am enjoying working on my house and having the free time to do so. The list is long a tedious but its moving. I have a whole post planned that is dedicated to my space.

About this Blog

What does FIT mean to me. It encompasses my life. Its about balance. Its about exercise being a regular part of my day, like getting dressed. It's a state of mind where food has no control. Urges, binges and out of control eating never happen. A place where life is at an even pace even during chaos.

This is my sounding board for my journey to find the fit girl within. I know she's in there somewhere. I am 40, married with 2 beautiful, crazy, insane, fun boys - a 9 year old and a 4 year old. I stay at home to run my house and raise my boys and volunteer all over time. My highest weight (not pregnant) is 232 (in 2007). It might have been higher at some point but that's is the highest recorded I know of.

I have been writing here for sometime. I have had a roller coaster of a journey and as many failures as successes. I reached my lowest of 185 in about April 2011. It's now 2013 and in the summer I've topped out at about 225. I am working an me and bringing the fit girl back in my daily life.
